Lets discuss abstinence…Bristol Palin?!
Bristol Palin has been in the media this week, discussing abstinence, or more specifically its importance to teens.
Bristol and Tripp Palin
Palin gave birth to her son, Tripp, in December and while she is finding it difficult to cope with the responsibility, Bristol says it is far easier than the act of telling her parents. Bristol said “It was harder than labor”. We were sitting on the couch, my best friend and Levi, and we had my parents come and sit on the couch, too. And we had my sisters go upstairs,” Bristol said. “And we just sat them down, and I just — I couldn’t even say it. I was just sick to my stomach.”
Bristol says that admitting she was pregnant was something she “doesn’t want to remember” and that it was her choice and not her mother’s to keep the child.
Sarah Palin, while running for vice president alongside John McCain was heavily against abortion as one of her main policies. Thsi led to great contoversy over whether Sarah had forced Bristol into keeping the child, even though she was only 17 at the time.
Palin of course denies this, and has stood by her daughter throughout the pregnancy. However, Bristol Palin has continued to say that she hopes to become a strong advocate of teen abstinance in the future saying that I’d love to prevent teen pregnancy because it’s not, like, a situation that you would want to strive for, I guess”.
While Bristol is clearly a shy person, it is obvious that she has suffered somewhat at the hands of the media, thanks largely to her mother’s controvertial personality. Maybe this is why we have started to see less and less of Sarah Palin in recent months, as she strives to keep her family together.

Sarah Palin and Ashley Judd are in the midst of a viscious war of words over mrs. Palin’s support of the controversial ‘predator control program’.

Judd shows up in a web video for a conservation group, which opposes Alaska’s predator control program and the practice of killing wolves and bears from airplanes. Miss. Judd said “It’s time to stop Sarah Palin and stop this senseless savagery.”
Palin argues her postion by stating that the program is designed to help sustain moose populations in Alaska, which in turn provides the meat needed for local, self sufficient hunters. The former VPILF stated that the remarks by Judd were “reprehensible and hypocritical” and criticizes the group for taking monitary donations for on the video.
By all accounts, this war of words has become quite viscious as it developed in to school yard ‘cattiness’. Palin, ever the controvesial figure may want to take heed of Judd’s remarks as the statistic shows more Alaskans are against the killing than are for it.
